White Sturgeon - Fraser River Drainage Mark-Recapture PIT Tag Data

This dataset includes White Sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) mark-recapture data collected in the Fraser River drainage. Users can use a Passive Integrated Responder (PIT) tag serial number to look up if the fish has been recaptured before and any associated data at last capture (e.g. fish length, girth, location, etc.). This dataset is maintained by the Reconciliation, Lands, Policy and Data Division within the Ministry of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship (WLRS). Data and information housed within the database is collected by both government biologists and partners such as First Nations, scientific fish collection permit holders, and participating fishery organizations. The [Fraser River drainage White Sturgeon PIT tag lookup app] (https://bcgov-env.shinyapps.io/sturgeon-pit-tag-lookup/) is also available as a tool to access this dataset.
